Overview

Through Deakin University’s Bachelor of Zoology and Animal Science, students will explore the social and economic impact that human activity has on animals and their ecosystems. They will investigate how animals respond and adapt to changes in the environment, including climate change, with a strong focus on Australian fauna and its unique importance in the global environment. Students will apply the latest research techniques to test hypotheses in the real-world and develop evidence-based decision-making skills valued by industry. Students will work with living subjects in the lab and field, giving them a first-hand understanding of the form and function of animals and the underlying mechanisms that influence their ecology and evolution. They will also learn broadly about how animals respond to changing environments over time. Best of all, their journey will be supported by teaching staff who share their passion for animals. Animal enthusiasts choose Deakin University to turn their passion into a rewarding career because of the university's research-informed teaching and practical approach to learning. This hands-on approach ensures students will develop the technical and practical expertise required, as well as the communication, teamwork and critical-thinking skills to equip them for future roles in the field. As students advance through the course, they will be exposed to many unique aspects of zoology. These include physiological and behavioral adaptations to environmental change, disease ecology, animal sensory neurobiology and behavior, as well as ecological and conservation genetics. The wide range of core units will broaden their skill set, expanding their career options across the growing zoology and animal science field.
